People being overly sensitive? The comment on there along the lines of "If you have to explain the joke, it's probably not a very good one" sum it up. They have clearly tried to be witty with this campaign but instead have left themselves open to being labelled everything they claim to be trying to highlight. Whatever the colour, their Punk IPA is shite anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invergowrie arab Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 The Brewdog boys are a pair of p***ks. Not as big a bunch of p***ks as their "shareholders" though and their fantasy island values on their shares. So at at least they have that going for them. And other peoples money. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 They just try way too hard these days.Their 'supermarket' beers are fairly pish these days compared to others you can get bar probably Jackhammer. I even grudge buying that based on the constant cringe they provide with these minter stunts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invergowrie arab Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 People always seem to talk about "offense". You can think something is shite without being offended by it. I'm not offended or seething or triggered(united have a monopoly on that) but I do think it's shite 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny van Axeldongen Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Fact: Brewdog got its name when the first tester to taste their drink said that it tasted like "Brewed dog shit, with a hint of chestnut". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Fair play to the Brewdog lads, I think they might have just ended sexism. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 It's a company whose MO has always been to gain brand awareness and custom through publicity stunts and media outrage. This is par for the course. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peternapper Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Not my kind of beer but wish I had a few of the original shares (don't have any) but whatever they are doing its certainly working. They moved into Ellon less than 10 years ago & have not stopped expanding there & also gone worldwide. Must be the fastest growing company in the country so cannot be all bad. Maybe football clubs could learn something about marketing from them to sell our game better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Nearly as good as their "let's trigger Vlad Putin by making him look gay" campaign. Great banter all round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Brewdog is tremendous. Love (most of) their beer. I don’t really care what the owners get up to when I’m having a pint/can/bottle (I’ve never seen any of the promotional videos or whatever). Folk it’s hipster beer, but to me it seems to be hipsterish to say that it’s for hipsters and act like ‘real men’ scorn it and only drink Tennents. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
